Sumario:While missiologists today have reached a general consensus concerning missio Dei, whereby all agree that God's mission calls and includes us, we have not come to the same clarity in relation to the church's role as a participant in God's mission. This article seeks to discover in the book of Ephesians a missional ecclesiology of unity in diversity that can guide ecclesiastical bodies and associated mission structures in the quest for cooperation in mission in a day where competition and fragmentation reign. It also explores the role of an ecclesiastical mission structure and the internal relationships of all “mission initiators” in a church body.
